Do what is in the pic to try to re-calibrate the temperature actuator otherwise it may be bad causing the no heat problem.

Well guys I figured it out, it was a combination of a couple things, after taking a good look under the hood touching hoses for heat I noticed little rusty splashes down by the lower radiator hose so I checked radiator level by removing the cap- even though the reservoir was full of pure green coolant and had never moved above the half way mark on the temp gauge I seen no water in radiator so I filled radiator and of course heater worked perfect so further investigation I disconnected over flow tube at the cap and blew through it or at least tried to ha it was pinched off behind the grill so I straightened it out and whoola the flow was clear, now I i checked for leaks and the radiator is the culprit its leaking around the tank at the cores barely a noticeable seepage. Going to purchase a radiator now, thanks for all the input it did get me under the hood again which put me in the right direction, thanks again for your help.
